My gf died of breast cancer and this was her song. I held her thru all her tears and I held her hand thru everything, I can't hear this without crying😥
My friend died a few years ago he loved this song we always go to where his ashes are every year with my wife and friends, this reminds me of him 😢 lovely guy 💙
While you’d be a fool to deny that this is an incredible song, I feel like Evanescence shines even brighter when you have the contrast of Amy Lee’s stunning vocals with a harder driving song like “Bring Me To Life” or “Going Under”.
This is one of the most powerful and heartbreaking songs ever. Amy's vocal is just pure perfection!! Very much in the same vein as Sarah McLachlan's Angel.
I absolutely adore this song... and Amy Lee's voice is untouchable! And, although it shows him playing the piano in the video, she is actually the pianist.
The reason for that is that she’s the angel (the person who has past) and he’s the one thinking everything she is singing. That’s why he IS playing the piano in the video. That’s why she’s laying down and in white etc etc etc cuz like her voice she’s an angel is the video
The bridge between the 2nd and 3rd verses is the sadest emotion I know. "I tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone. But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along." Agony!
she is so heart broken in this song... in the song she is a ghost that has recently passed and she is watching how devastated the man she loved is by her passing, she is powerless to help.. he sits at the piano she played crying, he walks to the places they went.. he misses her so much and it is crushing her.. she goes to those places watches from the trees crying, sits on the roof of where they lived... it is so sad, i wanna hold her, comfort her.. i love her voice, eyes and long beautiful hair
@@francinedrabik8530 u can use the lyrics and they fit for her sister, but she did not write this song, Moody did “a member of the band”.. she wrote “Hello” and “Like You” about the dark place she was in after her sister passed, not this song, although it does fit, but Amy herself said she does not think of her sister while she sings this song, but does on the other 2.. in fact she refuses to perform “Hello” live as it hurts to much
@@francinedrabik8530 she didn't write the song and it wasn't about her sister. She can definitely relate to it however. You are thinking of the song Hello.
I’m not sure how anybody has not heard this song before 😂 but even hearing it for the millionth time gives me goosebumps, one of the most beautiful songs ever
Facts just how I felt hearing this when it came out . 8m a hip hop r&b guy fell Asleep with VH1 ON BACK ON THE DAU AND WOKE UP TO THIS LIKE AM I DREAMING OR WTF.
Her voice is unreal. I love hearing this song with someone who's never heard it cuz I listen to it every time I see it!!! Lovely! Please try Bring Me Back to Life!
I found this song about 3 months after my mom's death from ovarian cancer, It became my song for her. Every line was written for our situation, I was there for her every time she cried, heard her screams when she was dying and held her and supported throughout the years. Although she was gone she was very much in my soul and lived in my mind and behind my eyes for years, even to this day 13 years later. "You still have all of me" Always and Forever mom 1950-2007
If you notice, in the video she never touches the ground. She hovers like a ghost (immortal soul) of a loved one that’s past. You should also listen to “Going Under”, “Bring Me to Life” and her duet with Seether, “Broken”.
@mspfinney I have a hard time interpreting lyrics sometimes but it seems pretty clear to me that she’s dead. The video seems to prove that too. She says “If you have to leave, I wish you would just leave, cause your presence still lingers here and it won’t leave me alone.” That sounds like a tortured soul wishing that her lover would just move on, so her soul can move on and be at peace. She says “These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real. There's just too much that time cannot erase.” Perhaps it was a suicide? Just speculating. But anyway, I agree that she seems like “supernatural” in this video.
@@durv13 Yeah I know, but Amy didn’t write the song. Ben Moody, who was in the band at the time and was the guy walking around in the video, wrote the lyrics when he was still in high school. And he said the lyrics evoke a spirit, but has nothing to do with God or religion. I believe he wrote the song around the time his grandfather died. And I’m sure Amy can relate because of her sister, who died and also because of her brother, who suffered with severe epilepsy his entire life before finally dying in 2018.
@@Whoopdido777 nahh its about her sister . read the lyrics . I'm so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears And if you have to leave I wish that you would just leave 'Cause your presence still lingers here And it won't leave me alone These wounds won't seem to heal, this pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase When you cried, I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream, I'd fight away all of your fears And I held your hand through all of these years But you still have all of me You used to captivate me by your resonating light Now, I'm bound by the life you left behind Your face it haunts my once pleasant dreams Your voice it chased away all the sanity in me
*Wasted on You, it's called. It's amazing!!! But thank you, I felt like I was the only one here who's also listening to their more recents songs, everyone's recommending ooold songs from their first albums lol
@@Annaaoeoeeh oh shoot! My face is red. Lol how embarrassing. Thank you! And I love that new song, I need to check out more if it( the new stuff,album.👍❤
Amy Lee is definitely my favorite female vocalist and this song is one of my top faves too. This song will cut through your heart like a knife her voice is so beautiful and powerful.
I cry every time I hear her voice, Evanescence was my late mum’s favourite band, she passed in 2011 age 56, I would walk into her house and she would have their album blasting so loud much to my dad’s annoyance 😂. My wee mum definitely had great taste 🥰
She has the voice of an angel!!! My favorite song from their band!! I'm so happy you like it!! Thank you for reacting to this beautiful song!! Stay safe!
She has one of the most beautiful and emotionally charged voices I've ever heard. She COMMANDS attention just with her voice. Super talented and beautiful voice.
my father introduced me to Evanescence when i was just 7. Nearly 20 years later i still love to hear her music She is SEVERELY UNDERRATED in the states. But wildly popular over seas
This is the 5th year my brother left this world, why did she have to make the song so sad? I never thought so until that happened. I still break down when I hear this
Your reaction was beautiful. At 3:19 when you closed your eyes and just FELT the song, that was perfect. I did the same the first time I heard it. Amy Lee has a gorgeous voice
Her voice is incredible, and the control she has over it, the ability to use it to convey her feelings, and her thoughts...she has a very rare gift indeed. Been listening to Evanescence quite a bit lately, seems to bring me peace.
Amy Lee’s voice is unbelievable. She could sing the phone book and I’d sit and listen to her. She recorded some songs with Seerher that are good as well.
I can’t believe that there are still people who don’t know about this beautiful song. I’m not surprised though since not everyone went through scene in their younger days. But yes this is one of the songs that have and always will captivate my soul.
Every time I hear the angelic yet powerful voice of Amy Lee singing I literally forget to breathe. Her vocals just invade every fiber of my being and take me to places I didn't even know existed.
at 1:45 i had to pause it and step away for a minute. For anyone who has lost a loved one this song is especially hard to listen to. This song was for someone who died in her life and if you notice her feet never touch the ground in the video :(
This particular song showcases her immense talent to sing. Its not her regular style, her songs are sometimes more poppy, rock and metal. Most of her line up are a little Dark one way or another, some quite more so.
I loved watching your expressions as you listened to this haunting song. No matter how many times I listen to it I always cry. Thanks for making this video. Your reaction was priceless! Carly💙💙💙 I think we're all in love with her😊
Her voice is off the chain!! It is one of the most incredible voices I've ever heard ♥️🌷🎶 You can feel it in your soul...untouchable. I am so grateful that she shared her God given talent with the world 🦋
I know all music is open to interpretation and can have many meanings, but just for context, Amy came out a while ago and explained that this is actually a song for her younger sister that passed away at 3 years old.
OMG I love this group you should listen to wake me up its sooooooooooooo good her voice is amazing. I sing and she is one of my favourites thank you such a great choice yet again. See how it got you pukka lol
Amy Lee is a brilliant singer, who happens to front a metal band. Take a listen to their song "Do What You Want" - it's was a single, and a rock song that's more like them.
Thank you for always coming to these with such genuine appreciation. Your reaction videos are some of the best, just because you obviously enjoy music for the purity of it. Why we should all listen to a wide range, there are fantastic pieces across all genres.
My gf died of breast cancer and this was her song. I held her thru all her tears and I held her hand thru everything, I can't hear this without crying😥

You are an angel

It is a song that is so relevant to your situation...bless your gf
“Bring me to life” by Evanescence
.....goosebumps!!
A dramatic jam!!!
Yes
Definitely review this song.
Absolutely!
Kinda underwhelming compared to this
If you liked this one and already fallen in love, you should hear her sing “bring me to life” 💔
Definitely a good choice after My Immortal
Yes. Definitely 👍
And call me when you’re sober
What happened to her
Amazing performer. Lucky to see her in Toronto years ago in a relatively small club. So talented
While you’d be a fool to deny that this is an incredible song, I feel like Evanescence shines even brighter when you have the contrast of Amy Lee’s stunning vocals with a harder driving song like “Bring Me To Life” or “Going Under”.
totally agree.
Also very much agree
I was gonna suggest going under too
she is good at hitting lower tones in music.
Ive alway thought lithium was one of her best, could be just me tho
This is one of the most powerful and heartbreaking songs ever. Amy's vocal is just pure perfection!! Very much in the same vein as Sarah McLachlan's Angel.
Amy Lee has a voice that could put an end to war.
Sure wish that could happen.
This comment
I Agree
One of the top ten voices in pop, for sure.
I absolutely adore this song... and Amy Lee's voice is untouchable! And, although it shows him playing the piano in the video, she is actually the pianist.
Beautiful. What a voice. The. Key she sings in is what captivates me...
Fun fact
Check out the soundtrack to the movie Blind, Amy did almost every song and it’s absolutely beautiful. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
The reason for that is that she’s the angel (the person who has past) and he’s the one thinking everything she is singing. That’s why he IS playing the piano in the video. That’s why she’s laying down and in white etc etc etc cuz like her voice she’s an angel is the video
Ben Moody wrote the song but yes, she is 100% the singer and pianist and song writer of a lot of their songs.
The bridge between the 2nd and 3rd verses is the sadest emotion I know.
"I tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone. But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along."
Agony!
Bases on her brothers suïcide
EVANESCENCE Amy Lee's voice is strong and beautiful. AMY LEE.
Absolutely love her!
One of the most beautiful songs ever written imo.
she is so heart broken in this song... in the song she is a ghost that has recently passed and she is watching how devastated the man she loved is by her passing, she is powerless to help.. he sits at the piano she played crying, he walks to the places they went.. he misses her so much and it is crushing her.. she goes to those places watches from the trees crying, sits on the roof of where they lived... it is so sad, i wanna hold her, comfort her.. i love her voice, eyes and long beautiful hair
@wendy kelly you’re welcome
She wrote this about her sister who died from cancer...that's what I have seen in an interview years ago.

The band's other popular song is "Bring Me To Life." Amy Lee also did a song with Seether called "Broken."
Yes, Broken is great!
I love Amy Lee. Another powerful voice I love Lzzy Hale. I recommend Shatter me which is done by Lindsey Sterling which features Lzzy
@@ian2889 It really is, and I wish I could listen to it again
Oh, I love Broken
Broken is MY SHIT!!!!!!
"Hello" by Evanescence is super emotional too - man, you've barely scratched the surface
also Speak to me, althou is one of her sound track songs. it's gorgeous and ugly crying song
It hit me like a train, the first time I heard it... I burst into tears
Amy wrote Hello for her sister.
Hello crushes me. She is beautiful but her voice is true Beauty!
Hello and Like You are about her sister that died. I prefer Like You. Not much of a fan of the slower songs, or this one.
Millions have said that her voice is very Haunting .
Agree with that. It has a very ethereal, haunting quality. This is my favourite song of theirs but this whole album is amazing.
Hauntingly beautiful that it haunts me till now from the first time hearing her sing this.
This woman reaches into your soul and takes it for a ride!! I love her!
Oh you’re gonna fall in love
Amy Lee is awesome and this song is beautiful
"Who is this man?"
Me; "Well that would be Amy Lee. Lead singer of Evenessence. That lady has pipes bruh."
I get chills watching people experience her voice for the first time.
There’s two versions of this song. One where the drums come in, & another instead of the drums, just violins. Both are beautiful & ethereal.
Yes! I love the orchestra version too
I’m not sure how anybody has not heard this song before 😂 but even hearing it for the millionth time gives me goosebumps, one of the most beautiful songs ever
I am always so proud to say that they are from central Arkansas and one of the band members went to my school
im so jealous that you are feeling it for the first time. It actually gives me chills looking at you and reliving it;D love your reactions xxx
for many, the best song they ever heard. Heart wide open...
"I'm in love." That wraps it up...lol Good job!
I'm a 45 year old straight woman, and *I'm* in love with her!
38 and have been in love with her since they released Bring Me To Life.
Facts just how I felt hearing this when it came out . 8m a hip hop r&b guy fell Asleep with VH1 ON BACK ON THE DAU AND WOKE UP TO THIS LIKE AM I DREAMING OR WTF.

Lol! All 13 of them.wow;
That's cute lol!
When she sings, its like an incantation and we fall under her spell.
Amy’s voice would make angels cry
"Lithium" and "Call me when you're sober"
Lithium is a definite
Lithium, uggh it hits me hard in the feels
I love Amy Lee. BTW @4:44 "Her and the pianist". Amy IS the pianist (too) ! :)

Call me when your sober
Lithium
Whisper
Or just all of her music in general.

CreoleFaerie true story!
Yes indeed, I totally agree.🤘
Everybody’s fool, another fav.
The one song i listened to a million times before my 15 year old son died from cancer in 2004.... Still makes me cry....
Listen to ‘Bring me to life” next and “Call me When you’re Sober”
Her voice is so pure, beautiful and angelic, it actually bring tears to my eyes! I never get tired of hearing this song.
OH MY GOD MY FAVORITE SONG EVER THANK YOU THANK YOU
just a heart wrenching song and ever more impactful knowing shes a spirit in this video hence her feet never touches the ground
You've introduced me to something new. Never heard of this group but will sure check them out. Wow.

After just a few notes,and a couple words, she has you captive. Almost like she has hold of you.love it
Written for her little sister who died at age of 3!!! Great reaction!! Beautiful song!!!!!
my favorite since 2003, she's the only singer that gives me chills
A new artist for me. Thanks for introducing her to me. This song brought tears to my eyes.
This particular song showcases her immense talent to sing. Its not her regular style, her songs are sometimes more poppy, rock and metal. Most of her line up are a little Dark one way or another, some quite more so.
Saw her live August 2018 and she still sounds amazing. Very distinctive and beautiful voice.
Next Evanescence song you should do is "Bring Me to Life". Or maybe "Call Me When You're Sober".
Listened to them non stop for months when I bought their albums, time to go back & fall in love all over again.
Try Hello, Bring Me Back To Life, My Heart Is Broken. Amy Lee is amazing. Thanks for reacting to Evanesence.
Hello, my heart such an amazing powerful song
That song gives me chills every time I hear it.
They are great, and I 2nd the vote for "Bring me to Life" to contrast this.
I loved watching your expressions as you listened to this haunting song. No matter how many times I listen to it I always cry. Thanks for making this video. Your reaction was priceless! Carly💙💙💙 I think we're all in love with her😊

It is the story of a ghost haunting the memory of a grieving lover. As you can see she never touch the ground.
I know all music is open to interpretation and can have many meanings, but just for context, Amy came out a while ago and explained that this is actually a song for her younger sister that passed away at 3 years old.
Her song "My heart is broken" is amazing.So much emotion behind her voice.
I enjoy many of their songs but another one that stands out to me is Bring me to life. You should listen to that one too.
Supersensational Such a beautiful singer with such a fabulous voice, and the band.......WOW!!!!
Evanescence Lithium is a good one to react to
Amy's voice is beyond amazing. This song always brings me to tears!
OMG I love this group you should listen to wake me up its sooooooooooooo good her voice is amazing. I sing and she is one of my favourites thank you such a great choice yet again. See how it got you pukka lol
A hauntingly beautiful voice. One of a kind. Hard to not fall in love with her immediately ❤
Please I would really like to see your reaction to 'Zombie' by the Cranberries.
👇
It has been said that she has the voice of an angel. She could move even the host of heaven to tears with the beauty in it.
Amy Lee is a brilliant singer, who happens to front a metal band. Take a listen to their song "Do What You Want" - it's was a single, and a rock song that's more like them.
Thank you for always coming to these with such genuine appreciation. Your reaction videos are some of the best, just because you obviously enjoy music for the purity of it.
